Classification, Phylogeny, and Zoogeography of the Genus Penlypus (Coleoptera: Cleridae) Classification, Phylogeny, and Zoogeography of the Genus Penlypus (Coleoptera: Cleridae) GINTER EKIS SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 227 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review. Press requirements for manuscript and art preparation are outlined on the inside back cover. S. Dillon Ripiey Secretary Smithsonian Institution SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 227 Classification, Phylogeny, and Zoogeography of the Genus Perilypus (Coleoptera: Cleridae) Ginter Ekis MAR 3119771 i SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1977 ABSTRACT Ekis, Ginter. Classification, Phylogeny, and Zoogeography of the Genus Perilypus (Coleoptera: Cleridae). Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology, number 227, 138 pages, 386 figures, 2 tables, 1977.—New World Genus Perilypus is redefined, and its natural history summarized. Species occur in at least three macro- habitats defined as oak, liana, and herbaceous assemblages. Beetles with rectangular bodies inhabit oak and liana assemblages whereas oval-bodied beetles are found among herbaceous plants; mimetic interactions are thought to be the basis for these habitat-body form correlations. Perilypus mimics are re- garded as generalists having evolved in appearance and/or behavior charac- teristics that simulate more than one distasteful model. Altitudinally the genus ranges from sea level to 3400 meters; however, most specimens were collected between 1000 and 2000 meters. Laboratory observations indicate that Perilypus beetles are highly predatory, with size and rigidity of victims being important limiting factors in prey acceptability. The criteria used for recognition of species and of infra- and suprageneric groupings are discussed and techniques for dis- sections, illustrations, and measurements are described, a morphological analysis of the major external and internal organs is presented, and a key to the species groups and species based on adult characteristics is provided. Larval and pupal stages of Perilypus are described for the first time. The species groups are char- acterized, and given for each species are, as appropriate, synonymic list, diag- nostic combination, description, discussion of structural and chromatic variation, discussion of natural history, geographic distribution, etymological derivation, locality records, general notes, and illustrations. Distribution maps with sym- bols visually convey the geographic range of species and species groups. There are 49 species presently recognized in Perilypus and 30 of these are described for the first time. Twelve new synonymies are established. A phylogeny of Perilypus is postulated using the Hennigian method of phylogenetic analysis. The zoogeography of the genus is discussed in terms of faunal limits and vicari- ance. Concepts of historical zoogeography ("faunal tracks", "center of origin and dispersal", and "forest refugia") are briefly discussed and two of them are used to explain distributions of extant Perilypus taxa. Relationship discussions within the species groups vary in completeness according to availability of data. A fairly complete treatise is presented for the larger limbatus, quadrilineatus, and ornaticollis groups, but the treatment of the reventazon group, the largest group in the genus, is very fragmentary. Ancestral Perilypus probably evolved in north- ern Central America, during mid-Tertiary, and ultimately evolved into eight species groups. Progenitors of the frontalis, criocerides, chaletoides, and quad- rilineatus groups remained in northern Central America as did all of their descendants. Ancestors of the limbatus and viridipennis groups dispersed to southern Central America; some members of both groups ultimately penetrated South America. The ornaticollis group, the most derived species group in the genus, and the reventazon group are especially widespread geographically.

  • Electronic Version 2005 Checklist of the Cerambycidae, of the Western Hemisphere
    Electronic Version 2005 Checklist of the Cerambycidae, of the Western Hemisphere Oreodera olivaceotincta Tippman, male Miguel A. Monné Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro Quina da Boa Vista, 20940-040, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil Frank T. Hovore 14734 Sundance Place Santa Clarita, CA, USA, 91387-1542 2005 2 Electronic Checklist of the Cerambycidae of the Western Hemisphere 2005 Version (updated through 01 January 2006) Miguel A. Monné & Frank T. Hovore, Compilers Introduction The Cerambycidae, commonly known as longhorned beetles, longicorns, capricorns, round-headed borers, timber beetles, goat beetles (bock-käfern), or sawyer beetles, comprise one of the largest and most varied families of Coleoptera, with body length alone varying from ± 2.5 mm (Cyrtinus sp.) to slightly over 17 cm (Titanus giganteus). Distributed world-wide from sea level to montane sites as high as 4,200 m elevation wherever their host plants are found, cerambycids have long been a favorite with collectors. Taxonomic interest in the family has been fairly consistent for the past century, but the description of new taxa has accelerated in recent decades thanks to the efforts of Chemsak, Linsley, Giesbert, Martins, Monné, Galileo, Napp, and other workers. This checklist builds upon the efforts of Blackwelder (1946), Chemsak & Linsley (1982), Chemsak, Linsley & Noguera (1992), and Monné & Giesbert (1994), and presently includes nearly 9,000 described species and subspecies, covering the terrestrial hemisphere from Canada and Alaska to Argentina and Chile, and including the Caribbean arc. Adult Cerambycidae, upon which most taxonomic studies in the family have been based, vary widely in their habits. Some species are nocturnal, many are attracted to artificial light, and they also may be found at night on the trunks and branches of their host plants, or on foliage.

Part XI. Generic taxonomy, intergeneric phylogeny, and catalogue of the subfamily. Acta Musei Moraviae, Scientiae biologicae (Brno) 99(2): 5–94. – This treatise is the author’s culmination efforts with the checkered beetle subfamily Epiphloeinae Kuwert. The work contains a summation of the natural history of epiphloeine species, discussion of characters and character states found useful for the discernment of epiphloeine genera and species, description of the subfamily, key to genera, synoptic description of the genera, intergeneric hypothesis of phylogeny, catalogue of the species with each species represented by a color photograph, and index of genera, their species, and their synonyms. Keywords. Coleoptera, Cleridae, Epiphloeinae, genera, phylogeny, catalogue Introduction Epiphloeines are New World arbophilic beetles that frequent tree trunks infested with wood decomposing insects such as bark beetles. Within this group of checkered beetles one finds considerable intrageneric diversity of integumental color and body form varies extensively across generic lines. The species of some genera blend beautifully with the dark scabrous characteristic of tree bark; as in members of Plocamocera Spinola and Silverasia Nemésio. In other epiphloeines the elytra are brightly colored, as one finds among species of the mimetic Epiphloeus Spinola and Acanthocollum Opitz.

The three species that had previously been placed in the genus, L. luederwaldti Orchymont, 1937 (southern Brazil), L. saundersi Orchymont, 1937 (northern Brazil) and L. urichi (Scott, 1912) (Trinidad and Tobago), are redescribed in detail and illustrated with habitus photographs, line drawings, and SEM micrographs of relevant diagnostic characters. Lachnodacnum urichi is found not to be congeneric with the remaining two species. It is transferred to the genus Phaenostoma Orchymont, 1937 (as P. urichi (Scott, 1912) comb.

  • Cerambycidae of Ecuador (ECU) Compiled by F.T
    Checklist of the Cerambycidae of Ecuador (ECU) Compiled by F.T. Hovore, 2002 (excerpted from the Electronic Checklist of the Cerambycidae of the Western Hemisphere, Monné & Hovore, 2002). This list contains species for which specific data from Ecuador has been verified, or taxa which are known to be widespread throughout Andean and upper Amazonian South America and would be expected to occur in Ecuador. Some taxon groups presently are poorly represented in collections, and more field studies are needed to resolve the issue of whether they are less diverse in the fauna than would be expected, or simply have been under-collected. For example, groups with high taxonomic diversity elsewhere in Amazonia (such as the Piezocerini, Ibidionini, Rhinotragini, Lepturinae), are known from relatively few species in Ecuador, and speciose acanthocinine genera such as Lepturges and Urgleptes have only a few (or no) species recorded from the country. It is probable that further collecting will show that most of these groups are much better-represented in the fauna than they presently appear. Based upon field observations and specimens examined for the compilation of this list, it is apparent that hundreds more species of cerambycids will be added to the list by future collections. Most lowland species occur either in Amazonia or on the coastal slope, but very few taxa occur in both regions, the Andes apparently serving as an effective barrier to their distributions. However, some middle-elevation species do occur on both sides of the Andean crest, and there is a discreet fauna which is distributed across the higher elevations of the mountains, above about 6,000 (+2,000 m) feet elevation.
